Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of treating cells by co-culturing them with activated fibroblasts in order to regulate the growth and/or status of the cells. Fibroblasts are activated by culturing the cells under conditions that induce the cells to adhere to each other to form multicellular aggregates or spheroids. The present invention also provides a device for selecting cells from cell samples, such as bone marrow aspirate, the device comprises said multicellular aggregates.

Abstract: The present invention is capable of determining the rights to a file based on providing a descriptor. The descriptor can be calculated using an algorithm, which may be cryptographic and/or non-cryptographic. The descriptor may further be based on the file contents, metadata of the file, other file data, or any combination thereof to uniquely identify the file in a shared file repository. Since the descriptor is generated based on file data it will be the same regardless of which user generates it. Accordingly, only one copy of the file needs to be maintained in the shared file repository, thereby reducing the amount of network bandwidth required to assure the file is backed up and further reducing the amount of storage required to backup the files. This results in a vastly more efficient method of backup in terms of processing time, network bandwidth, and storage requirements.

Title: Stone work simulation system
Inventor: LOGAN JOHN RICHARD
IPC: B44F9/04
Filed: 2009-03-20
Abstract: A stone work simulation system including panels formed from a cementitious material.  The panels of the system can be cast or injection molded from cementitious slurry, including hydraulic cement, or gypsum cement and an optional latex/water mixture. A  desired amount of the slurry is added to the mold, the surface of which includes several spaced apart depressions formed therein to closely resemble a pattern of stones at least partially disposed in a mortar matrix. Optionally, the mold can include a number of flat spaces formed between the depressions. Optionally, a reinforcing mesh is also provided in the mold. A  colorant can be disposed on the bottom mold surface prior to the introduction of the mesh and the slurry to impart a color pattern to the system. After sufficient curing, the panel is removed from the mold and is ready for immediate use and/or further processing, such as additional surface coloring. In use, the system can be mounted to a building surface, such as a wall, e.g., with a mechanical fastener, adhesive, mortar, cement, and/or the like. To provide distinctiveness to the system, a plurality of individual simulated stones (e.g., that have been formed separately or as a separable unit, e.g., according to the process above) that are sized, shaped, and colored similarly to or differently from the system, can be incorporated onto the flat spaces formed on the system to form a unique finished product and avoid the appearance of the installed system being an arrangement of individual panel units.
